Edward is looking out the window
Another beautiful day
Blue sky
White clouds
The trees in the park
Singing their song
With the leaves whistling
…
Edward feels good
About the progress
He and the team are making.
He now takes 3 minutes
To visualize the upcoming meeting.
It is Tuesday, end of day
Edward organized a special get-together
To share his latest discoveries
Personal and organizational.
…
The team was ready
Reorganized the conference room
Everybody sitting in a circle
Soft drinks and snacks at hand.
An animated conversation going on
Elevated Edward’s mood further
He felt a connection
The day outside and what he felt now.
…
Team … Edward started
I’ve asked for this get-together
For 2 reasons …
1. To apologize to you
2. To outline a way forward.
…
The team members were looking at each other
Trying to see if someone
Knew more about what was coming …
Of course, substantial changes
Happened recently
Monday’s commitment meetings
Friday’s celebrations
Everybody feeling more validated
Contributing so much more than before.
What is Edward up to?
…
Edward you are making us
More than curious, Sarah said.
Edward smiled and paused.
…
I have been taught a lesson
Edward started …
I understand now
My mood swings impacted you all
Every day you wondered
What kind of day it would be
I apologize for that
Deeply apologize to you all.
Sarah alerted me
Made me see these dynamics.
No need to apologize Edward
Thomas said
We’ve turned that page already.
…
You know … Edward continued
The strange thing is that
When I tried to figure out
My mood swings
I had a hard time understanding
Why these happened.
…
In the Theatre of my Mind
I discovered something
So basic
So fundamental
I now love to share with you
I realized …
Every action we take
And even what we choose not to do
Has an impact, a result
Always.
It’s the Law of Cause and Effect.
…
By just taking 3 minutes
I bring clarity and intention
Anchor my Self
Act consciously.
…
Now imagine …
Before we act
We take a Pause
Recall what we want to create
Visualize it
Then take the necessary steps
To make it happen.
…
You create the causes
Of the effects you’ve seen already.
It is like the Theatre of the Mind
…
Now take 3 minutes early morning
Pause and see
The effect you want to create
Then … Act to make that happen.
I also took such 3-minutes, Edward said
In preparation for this meeting.
…
The team started an animated interaction
Then Sarah suggested …
Edward, let’s continue this conversation on Friday.
We see these 3-minutes apply to
Everything in our personal and professional lives.
P.S.
How about creating true clarity and the right effects in 3-minute sessions?
